ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of electronic moxibustion apparatus and stone needle for primary dysmenorrhea disease in 35 cases.Methods 70 patients were randomly divided into the treatment group of 35 cases by random number table ,using electronic moxibustion apparatus and stone needle for treatment;and con-trol group of 35 cases,only using electronic moxibustion apparatus for treatment from 5 days before menstruation ,the treatment was continuous for 5 days,a course including 3 menstruation cycles .The clinical therapeutic effect after one treatment course was observed .Results The curative effects of the two groups were respectively 91.42% and 88.57%(χ2 =0.16,P>0.05);recovery rates of the two groups were respectively 77.14%and 42.85%(χ2 =8.57, P<0.05).The scores of the VAS,CMSS of the treatment group were much lower than those of the control group after treatment (t=2.532,2.137,2.256,P<0.05).Conclusion Electronic moxibustion apparatus and stone needle therapy is an effective method to treat primary dysmenorrhea ,which is a safe and convenient method .
